Ageing has been identified as an independent risk factor for various diseases; however, the physiological basis and molecular changes related to ageing are still largely unknown. Here, we show that level of APPL2, adaptor protein, is significantly reduced in major organs aged mice. Knocking down APPL2 causes premature human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs).

Experimental studies in animal models of aging such as nematodes, fruit flies or mice have observed that decreased levels insulin signaling promotes longevity. In humans, hyperinsulinemia and concomitant resistance are associated with an elevated risk age-related diseases suggestive a shortened healthspan. Age-related disorders include neurodegenerative diseases, hypertension, cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes. High ambient concentrations promote increased lipogenesis fat storage, heightened protein synthesis accumulation non-functional polypeptides due to limited turnover capacity. Moreover, there is impaired autophagy activity, less endothelial NO synthase activity. These changes mitochondrial dysfunction oxidative stress. The cellular stress induced by anabolic activity initiates adaptive response aiming at maintaining homeostasis, characterized activation the transcription factor Nrf2, AMP activated kinase, unfolded response. This protective more potent long-lived human species than short-lived research resulting stronger pro-aging impact nematodes flies. insulin-induced cell decreases age, because increase but Nrf2 activation. detrimental might be contained adopting lifestyle low insulin/insulin enhances stress, dietary restriction exercise.

Abstract The dynamicity of the mitochondrial network is crucial for meeting ever‐changing metabolic and energy needs cell. Mitochondrial fission promotes degradation distribution mitochondria, while fusion maintains function through complementation components. Previously, we have reported that networks are tubular, interconnected, well‐organized in young, healthy C. elegans , but become fragmented disorganized with advancing age models age‐associated neurodegenerative disease. In this work, examine effects increasing or capacity by ubiquitously overexpressing gene drp‐1 genes fzo‐1 eat‐3 individually combination. We then measured function, morphology, physiologic rates, stress resistance, lifespan. Surprisingly, found overexpression either machinery both resulted an increase fragmentation. Similarly, strains extended lifespans increased which case appears to be at least partially due upregulation multiple pathways cellular resilience these strains. Overall, our work demonstrates expression extends lifespan improves biological without promoting maintenance a youthful morphology. This highlights importance mitochondria longevity.

SUMMARY Health is strongly affected by aging and lifespan-modulating interventions, but the molecular mechanisms of mortality regulation remain unclear. Here, we conducted an RNA-seq analysis mice subjected to 20 compound treatments in Interventions Testing Program (ITP).
